Missouri has no illegals, go figure ...... style='color:black'> Missouri's approach to the problem of illegal immigration appears to be more advanced, sophisticated, strict and effective than anything to date in Arizona .

When are our fearless President and his dynamic Attorney General going to take action to require Missouri start accepting illegal immigrants once again?

So, why doesn't Missouri receive attention? Answer: There are no illegal immigrants in Missouri to demonstrate.

The "Show Me" state has once again shown us how it should be done.n style='color:black'> There needs to be more publicity and exposure regarding what Missouri has done.

Let's pass it around.

In 2007, Missouri placed on the ballot a proposed constitutional amendment designating English as the official language of Missouri . In November 2008, nearly 90% voting in favor! Thus, English became the official language for ALL governmental activity in Missouri ... No individual has the right to demand government services in a language….. OTHER than English.

In 2008, a measure was passed that required the Missouri Highway Patrol and other law enforcement officials to verify the immigration status of any person arrested, and inform federal authorities if the person is found to be in Missouri illegally. Missouri law enforcement officers receive specific training with respect to enforcement of federal immigration laws.

In Missouri , illegal immigrants do NOT have access to taxpayers benefits such as food stamps and health care through Missouri Health NET

In 2009, a measure was passed that ensures Missouri ’s public institutions of higher education do NOT award financial aid to individuals who are illegally in the United States In Missouri, all post-secondary institutions of higher education to annually certify to the Missouri Dept. of Higher Education t-family:'Calibri','sans-serif'"> that they have NOT knowingly awarded financial aid to students who are unlawfully present in the United States... So while Arizona has made national news for its new law, it is important to remember, Missouri has been far more proactive in addressing this horrific problem. Missouri has made it clear that illegal immigrants are NOT welcome in the state and they will certainly NOT receive public benefits at the expense of Missouri taxpayers.

That’s Kooky talk they are just looking to improve their lives. Sorry that was my inner bleeding heart liberal coming out yeah they want a better life at our expense. True or not it needs to be the law in all states. I'm not against immigration just illegal immigration. America is broke States are broke we cannot continue down this path

We did pass the english language law. But the liscense bureau still has all tests in any language you want. The only deportation I have heard is when Tyson gets cleaned out once a year of all their hired imported help.
